Kerry Tribe: Dead Star Light at Camden Arts Centre

Haven't been to an exhibition in a while so was pleased when I managed to get to Camden Arts Centre today to see the Kerry Tribe exhibition 'Dead Star'. A mixture of film, video, sound installation and very relevant to what I'm working on at present. The piece that most interested me and related to where I'm at with my practice at present is 'Dead Star Light shown together with HM'. the work is about memory and the piece is documentary in style, about a man (HM) Whom suffers amnesia. I'm particularly interested in peoples personal stories and memories at present and looking at using documentry type filming as art, I've been researching what makes a film become documentry and also I'm interested in truth and fiction and what the viewer chooses to believe, if an artist say's 'this is fact' does it become fact because it is a piece of art rather than a documentry... Must look up dictionary definition for 'documentry'.
